buenos dias!

this was an interesting week. we got invited into a house while tracting last tuesday so we picked them up as an investigator. we gave her the lds.org web address and told her to read or watch some of the general conference talks. they said we could come over this morning so we decided to sacrifice an hour of pday for a potential investigator but unfortunately, she attended her church yesterday so she wasn't too keen on giving that up. we left her with a book of mormon though and told her to read and pray about it so maybe something will come of her in a couple months. we did place another book of mormon this week though! we were walking to an apartment to tract and we started talking to a lady at the bus stop. she said she had met with elders years ago and she is very interested in religion so she was really excited when we offered her a book of mromon. idk if she is just interested in it for intellectual reasons but we told her to read and pray so hopefully we can contact her again.

ha funny story, we accidentally went to pennsylvania the other day. we were looking for a less-active on the branch directory and we got onto this highway and we passed the house but there wasn't an exit until after we crossed the border so woo hoo i can chalk that up to states i've been to! we were only in pennsylvania for like 3 minutes though so maybe it doesn't count.

besides that, not too much else has happened. we have met a lot of nice people while tracting. lots of people here are very set in their own beliefs so they are very nice and like to talk about the bible with us but thats about it. we try to pass out books of mormon when we can but sometimes that scares them away. its my favorite when people open the door and are about to open the glass or screen door when they see our badge and then they decide they would rather keep it closed. oh well. still trying to be optimistic! it's been 2 months, its got to be time for us to find investigators!

i hope you all have a good week. i know i said i couldn't wait to get out but i admit that i do find myself missing home. keep writing me letters and tell the lambs and my other family members hi for me! oh, and tell connely bye for me! good job on being dependable ward members and yw/ym. the leaders really do put so much time and love into the youth! yes ok i love you all and miss you!
